Surf’s up at Noosa

THE 2016 SurfStitch Noosa Logger, held over the Labour Day weekend, delivered the spectators and surfers with perfect waves and some exceptional surfing over two beautiful days at Noosa’s First Point.
Defending champ Josh Constable made the perfect start in the Open Men’s final to set up his third title win, ahead of Dane Wilson and Husni Ridwan.
The Open Ladies Final was overflowing with control, grace and style, Rosie Locke made it two in a row taking first ahead of Isabelle Braly and Kathryn Hughes.
The Junior Boys were phenomenal with Tom Morat in seamless form taking first ahead of Zac Brewer and Nic Brewer.
All the Junior Girls were ripping and it came down to the last wave of the final for Jade Gower to claim the Junior Girls 2016 title edging out Adelaide Smith and Lilliana Bowery in the closest of finals.
Other winners were Damien Coulter Over 40s, Reid Johnson Over 50s, Eric Walker Over 60s and Matt Cuddihy in the Old Mal.
